My career began on Kim Sunnen’s farm during high school, where I managed responsibilities ranging from goat care to dog grooming. I then joined Stafford Suites assisted living facility in Sumner, starting as a waiter and dishwasher before advancing to a line cook position. At Stafford, I took the initiative to volunteer for various projects beyond my job description.In 2020, I graduated from the Full Stack Development program at the University of Washington. Following this, I worked as a JavaScript developer at Media Index Publishing for two years, where I contributed to dynamic and engaging web solutions. I then transitioned to a role as a Special Education Paraeducator, dedicating another two years to supporting students with diverse learning needs.
